Hi Merry Christmas everyone spent the last 2 days in the cold (I do not have a garage) fiddling with the car fitted new glazing seals and powdercoating the door handles .......after removing the doorcards I can only get the mirrors to move up and down NOT side to side....both OS and NS mirrors are the same (I only removed NS doorcard)......Any ideas ????? |

Merry Christmas to you as well. Sounds like you may have dislodged something in the process of removing the door cards. I'd take the door card back out and double check nothing is trapped anywhere. I assume they were working in all directions prior to removing the door card? Ben

Your lucky you have mirrors. The glass in my nearside mirror fell out just before Christmas. (On shutting the door!) Water had got behind it & frost did the rest. Price for a new glass a shocking £85!  Will have to ring JMG in the new year & see if theres are any cheaper.

I saw them let me know what they are like ......my NS seems to be about 5mm smaller than it should be I can see the backing plate behind the mirror so will need changing! ...the good news the mirrors have started working again |
